MyBlogGuest hung out on Friday, November 30th for our monthly hangout. We started something new with shorter hangouts, but two of them, to open up the schedule for more opportunities for the community to join in or tune in to watch live.
Our participants for this hangout included: Phil Turner (MBG moderator in chief), Gerald Weber (co-founder of Viral Content Buzz), Michael Cohn (MBG user), Deborah Dera (MBG user), Mar Rod (MBG user), and Deborah Anderson (MBG social media strategist and event host).
